Priya $22 per hour for 1 child

I have been nannying and babysitting on and off for about 6 years and really enjoy spending time with kids and helping families out. I regularly cared for two boys, ages 6 and 10, helping with their daily routines, keeping them entertained, and making sure they always felt safe and supported. I also house sat and took care of the family's chickens whenever they were out of town. For another family, I babysat their 10-year-old son as needed and also looked after their house and dog while they traveled. I'm a creative person and love finding fun ways to connect with kids. I went to school for audio engineering, and I play guitar and bass, sing, and write songs. I also enjoy arts and crafts, being outdoors, and spending time with animals, so I'm always happy to help with pets too! I'm dependable, patient, and easygoing, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and caring environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
